Creator's Key Takeaways

If I had to choose, I could only go to one, I would take Lookout Cay. I know that may be controversial, stirring something up here

One of the big knocks at Lookout Cay itself is the pier. It's about 0.6 miles long, so Disney didn't want to dredge the reef area there

Castaway Cay has some breaker walls set up around the island, and what that does is it breaks waves, and so it results in much more calmer seas

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Request a ribeye at the beach dining locations; they are available upon request.

✓If you want a smoother beach experience with finer sand, choose Lookout Cay, but be prepared for a long walk on the pier.

✓If you prefer calmer waters and easier access via tram, choose Castaway Cay.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Walking distance to the beach — At Lookout Cay, expect a 30-minute walk from ship to beach including the pier and tram. At Castaway Cay, use the tram system for convenience.

Beach terrain and safety — Watch your step at Castaway Cay as the sand is rockier with more shells; Lookout Cay is smoother.
